Questions About Elgin Watches
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Some Elgin watches can be worth as much as $5,000 because of their make, model and age. In most cases, though, Elgin watches sell in the $200-$500 range.
- Are Elgin watches valuable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMay 17, 2024Yes, Elgin watches are valuable. The American watchmaker’s timepieces are widely favored by collectors all over the world. Watch lovers won’t likely pay more than a few hundred dollars for a vintage model, while rare Elgin timepieces, especially Art Deco-era wristwatches sporting gold cases, will fetch much higher sums. Whether or not an antique Elgin watch is a good investment, however, will depend upon factors such as rarity, condition, materials and more.
The Elgin National Watch Company was founded in Elgin, Illinois, in 1864 and was at one time the largest manufacturer of watches in the United States. In 1867, Elgin introduced its first watch — a pocket watch.
In the late 1800s, the open-face pocket watch became a staple on the American railroad. It was a requirement for railway workers to wear a pocket watch, as the timepieces were responsible for keeping conductors on schedule. This was a boon to the watchmaking industry, with companies like Hamilton, Elgin and the Waltham Watch Company producing high-grade and workingman’s watches. So-called “railroad watches” were among the finest watches of the era, and Elgin railroad watches are coveted today by watch enthusiasts.
As vintage watches of all kinds are making a comeback — even watchmakers such as Patek Philippe, Breitling and Omega are reissuing mid-century models — Elgin watches are in high demand on the secondary market.
At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection. Buyers should keep in mind that the value of any investment is subject to fluctuation, and any investment decisions should be made according to the guidance of a financial advisor.
Find vintage and antique Elgin watches on 1stDibs. - 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No. The USA-based Elgin Watch Company sadly closed its doors in 1968. The rights to the Elgin name were purchased by MZ Berger Inc., which manufactures watches in China and distributes them outside of conventional watch shops. On 1stDibs, find a collection of authentic Elgin watches from some of the world’s top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024To spot a fake Elgin watch, cross-reference the markings found on the back with information published on trusted online resources. Most timepieces feature a four-digit style number, a circular stamp that denotes the watch material and a series of numbers that identify the case manufacturer. By researching these numbers, you can usually determine the model of a timepiece. If your watch isn't a match for that model, it is unlikely to be authentic. A certified appraiser or other knowledgeable expert can also assist when authenticating Elgin watches. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Elgin watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The difference between Elgin and Lord Elgin is that one is the name of a watchmaker, and the other is the name of a line of watches. Elgin is the shortened name for the Elgin National Watch Company, founded in 1863 in Elgin, Illinois. One of the manufacturer's most well-known pocket watches was the Lord Elgin, which debuted during the first decade of the 20th century. A wristwatch version of the timepiece hit the market in the 1930s. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of Elgin watches.
- Are Elgin watches real gold?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertJune 10, 2024Whether or not Elgin watches are gold depends on the timepiece in question. The watchmaker designed a range of pocket watches and wristwatches made of 10-karat gold, 14-karat gold and 18-karat gold, while some of the company’s other accessories are gold-filled or gold-plated. (Gold-filled jewelry doesn’t have a lot of gold, but it has more gold than gold-plated jewelry.)
As vintage watches of all kinds are making a comeback — even watchmakers such as Patek Philippe, Breitling and Omega are reissuing mid-century models — Elgin watches are in high demand on the secondary market.
